A big well done to everyone who participated in the efforts to send Vanessa Riddle to Philadelphia for crucial medical treatment. The £500k required was raised yesterday.
Brogan Rogan’ brought the issue to the blog and Taggsybhoy arranged the CQN Music Quiz earlier this month, our first formal activity for Vanessa. Penfold gave us a signed Celtic top at the quiz which raised an incredible £5000 on eBay (plus gift aid) from a Celtic fan who, quite simply, gets what following this club is all about.
Not only did he pay £5000 but he told us to keep the shirt and use it again! We then raffled the shirt on eBay and raised almost £1400. You are all part of an incredible story by an incredible support.
The draw for the signed shirt took place at Uefa headquarters in Nyon, you can watch the video of below and find out if you won.
Our thanks again to Andrew in Belfast for his tireless help with the site this week. The new ‘whyte’ template is in place and we’ll continue to restore functionality.

“It’s only when you read the Scottish media that you realise how big Rangers are throughout the world.” Carlos Bocanegra
Bocanegro: “Rangers are world famous in Glasgow.”
Celtic are within their rights through the SPL rules not to make payment early. We have the funds to support that we can pay and money could be made payable to the SPL to hold in trust for Rangers to be paid on the day or the day after the game. I agree no Celtic team should have to go to Ibrox without a support Celtic have played this properly. We will not become another team who has lost money due to their mis-mangement. If they go bust before the match we lose our cash. Let them wait! Celtic will know their position and I hope that Celtic also survey the Broomloan stand before they leave the ground after the match. I don’t want the club being billed for damage that wasn’t done by the fans.

Calling Blantyre Tim Brendan Behan Googybhoy re my brothers situation.
Thanks for your kind concerns
He has a Welfare Rights Adviser involved a guy called Lee from Glasgow Social Work who has managed to get some benefits back the Employment Support part but the other ones the Disability Living parts are to go to an appeal hearing which might be up to a year to wait.!!! They say it is because his condition fluctuates some days he is not too bad but other days he is stuck in his wheelchair unable to do anything. To say he is fit for work is just ridiculous. Even on the days he is mobile and not too bad his speech is slurred and if you didnt know you would think he was on the bevvy. I dont now how any doctor could make a decision like this.

If you want to give Craig Whyte, Ellis, Whitney, Phelps & Duff at least 42 of your pounds to watch this year champions already smash to bits a depleted rag tag bunch then you have more money than sense IMHO

KJamBhoy, fair enough. But Papac did score for Brazil the other night, which is more than can be said for Ronaldinho and Neymar!

I got 6 tickets but were given to me for free

Right or wrong – was yesterday the day by which they needed to be out of Admin (stop laughing at the back) to have any chance of a European license for next season?
Or am I a month early?
Paul67,

The more money dumped on Hearts the lower the price will get. Rangers do have a poor home record. How did we let them beat us? Oh aye the referee was still on the payroll!

RobertTressell – Month early. The only way they will be out of administration by the end of this month is if it is into Liquidation
Been linked with 2 GKs this week,Dani Amos from an Israeli club and Raul Fernandez from Ath Bilbao.Could be the deal for FF is too expensive or cheaper alternatives around.
Dunfermline now blaming Rangers for them only part paying this month’s wages….
There goes another NewCo vote….

Ode To Elbows – from Sally
Take the fast train to Darksville and I’ll see you at the station,
You’d better bring along young Kerkar cos we’re in administration,
Don’t be slow, oh no no no, they want their dough.
Cos you’re leaving in the morning and I know it causes pain,
But Murray’s cheated them forever,
And Whyties jumped onto a plane,
To Monaco, oh no no no,
They want their dough.
Stupid huns, hehehe

What part didnt yu get?
BigChipsUK – Scoring a last minute winner for Brazil should put him in the shop window nicely, Maybe I have underestimated him ;)
I’m hearing the laundry people are gone from Ibrox. Players to wash their own kit. Kirk Broadfoot said to be terrified at the prospect……
Gordon J
I hope this will be the most memorable birthday you have ever had.
Have a great day.

Is Aluko entertaining ala jester type amusing?
Why have i got a picture of Aluko with a funny hat with bells on in my mind?
Was he a jocular medieval imp impersonator between his spells at the Dons & the Huns?
